. SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 696,295, dated March 25, 1902.
Application tiled October 26. 1901. Serial No. 80,093. (No model.)
' To (6 IIlJ/Illl /1m (o/1111771,:
lie it known that we, IIANS ANGELL and THOMAS ihcnursox, citizens of the United States, residing at Washington, in the Dis- 5 trict of Columbia, have invented new and useful Improvements in Cartridges, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to cartridges; and the object in view is to provide a cartridge in which the projectile is provided with means,
preferably in the form of a baekwardly-extending stem,for supporting a flexible ease or jacket in which the explosive compound is packed, the said stem also forming a supl5 port and receptacle for the cap by means of which the charge is ignited. In addition to forming a support for the flexible case or jacket the stem also forms a longitudinal brace for the flexible case or jacket and keeps the latter in proper shape during the operation 0t transferring' the cartridge from the magazine to the tiring-chamber and in the act of forcing the firing-pin against the cap.
A further ohjectof the invention is to provide a flexible outer case or jacketof inflammable material, preferably some phlogistic textile fabric, which will be consumed-by the burning powder, so as to obviate the necessity for employing an ejector, said case or jacket also serving as a wiper or cleaner for the breech of the barrel as the cartridge is inserted therein.
With the above and other objects in view the invention consists in the novel construction, combination, and arrangement hereinafter fully described, illusl ratcd,and claimed. In the accompanyingdrawings, Figure l, is a perspective view of a cartridge complete constructed in accordance with the present 0 invention. Fig. 23 is an enlarged detail perspective view of tlio stem. Fig. 3 is a central longitudinal section through the cartridge, showing a portion of the stem in elo- \'ation and also illustrating the manner of applying theexplodingcap to the stem. Fig. 1 is a crosssection through the projectile on the line i. -l of l ig. I Fig. 5 is also a crosssection taken on the line .15 of Fig. 3.
Similar numerals of reference designate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawings.
Referring to the drawings, 1 designates a projectile, which may be of lead, steel, or any desired material and which in carrying out the present invention is provided with a centrally-disposed stem 2, which extends backwardly from the projectile a suitable distance.
The stem 2 is provided at its forward extremity with an enlargement orhead 3, around which the projectile l is molded or cast, the result being that the projectile and stem are firmly and permanently united. The stem 2 at its rear end is extended, as shown at 4, and slotted, as at 5, while the extreme end of the stem is in the form of asmail sleeve 6, which forms a cap-socket into which is adapted to be inserted an explosive-cap 7, which thereby communicates directly with the slot 5 of the stem, as will be readily seen in Figs. 2 and 3.
The slot 5 permits the explosive compound to bank up against he cap, thus insuring ignition.
Surrounding the stem 2 is an outer flexible case or jacket 8. This jacket is preferably composed of some phlogistic textile fabric, although other material may be substituted therefor without departing from the principle of this invention. The forward edge of the jacket 8 is received in an annular depression 9 in the projectile 1 and is secured by a hiiuling-thread 10, which isn't-zipped firmly around the jacket, as shown in Figs. 1 and 3. The rear end of the jacket is reduced and fitted snugly around the cap-socket 6 and is secured by wrapping abinding-strand 11 around said jacket. thread may, however, be employed for securin s the jacket to the stem and projectile.
Within the outer-case or jacket 8 there is placed a lining of oil-paper or any equivalent material, which will protect the explosive compound 12 'with which the jacket is filled and exclude the moisture, thus keepingthe powder or other explosive always in condi-v tion for tiring. Said lining may be fastened in place in any convenient manner, as by uniting the same to the inner surface of the outer case or jacket or binding the opposite Other means than the i. J wiped and cleaned byth )f on the projectile and cap-socket siniuliun ously with or independently of the outer case )2 jacket.
In View ofseen the stem 2 pcrnmnentlyconnocted W i projectile and i'revels therewith cartridge exploded. It will also iood that said stem forms it snp- .nd brace for the flexible jacket, "which. contains the explosive compound; for-then, llliL-b seid Sic-o1 not only forms the support for the firing-cap, but it serves to take the thrust of ihe breech-block duringthe operation of trz'tnsferring the cartridge from ilie magazine to the firing-chamber, and, further, to withstand the thrust of the firing-pin when the letter is thrown against the In inserting; the cartridge into the firing chambertbe Walls of the said chamber are eonteriicxiblejoeket, uni. us: the material of the jacket is combustiole it is instantly consumed by the powder or cxploclvc compound as the explosion takes place.

5. A. ccrtrid e comprising at projectile, a rigid etem ext-ending backwordly therefrom and provided adjacent to its outer extremity with. it slot, hollow sleeve the extremity of the stern com mnuicatingn'ith said slot and constituting a eepboclret, an outer flexible case or jacket connected atone end to said stem and the opposite end to the projectile, and ex glosive compound inclosed by said jacket,
